Dear Primanti Bros.,

I am writing to confirm a rumor. I heard all your sandwiches are “topped with french fries, cole slaw & tomatoes. Onions by request.” This just seems crazy to me. First off, cole slaw goes in a cup on the side and is generally ignored by most people (think of it as a garnish). Second, fries are finger food and belong alongside the bun not under it. Seriously, if the fires are under the bun what do you people eat with your sandwich? Third, who wouldn’t want onions? Making people specifically ask for these is just an obvious ploy to keep onion costs down if you ask me!

If this rumor is indeed true this is madness! Can you let me know if you guys really do this?

Also, when are you opening an Iowa location? I generally don’t leave the state (it’s not a court mandated thing or anything, but you wouldn’t understand).

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen
